@dangrous, @kadiealexander, @thesahindia Whoops! This issue is 2 days overdue. Let's get this updated quick!

Hey! I'm Agata from Callstack, can I help with this issue?

[koko57]

Looks like it's dupe of this issue: #15734, it's being held on #14676

[dangrous]

ah okay yeah - thanks for noticing that! I'll put this on hold for #14676 for now - I assume it's the same root cause as #15734, but will keep it open until that other issue is closed in case it's not.

@dangrous, @kadiealexander, @thesahindia Huh... This is 4 days overdue. Who can take care of this?

[dangrous]

not overdue, on hold. I'll make this weekly for now
